Ghost SIMs?

[Nephilim]

i've been reading up on ghost sims (ability to use two sims in same phone) has anyone else been interested in this? was thinking since TSTT interconnecting and $ tight might be a good idea.
When some of my peeps switch to digiel i could do the same but also keep my old TSTT sim to use with TSTT people.
(btw the sims don't work @ the same time in case anyone's wondering, you have to switch off between them using a tiny switch on the cover of the phone)

I remember the old TDMS nokia's used to have the option to put in multiple lines and you could just switch whenever you felt. Dunno why they forgot to add that feature to the sim cards.

the manufacturer's didn't forget..( evidenced by the fact that when the phone senses the dual sim adapter, it gives you a menu option)

is just that now, the SIM is what holds the data now, not the phone..... also, seeing that the phone company usually subsidises the cost of the phone substantially, they wouldnt really want to allow you to use the equipment on another network , jus so .. ( which is why they 'sim lock'). the manufacturers probably sided with the phone companies

Subscriber Identity Module

One of the key features of GSM is the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM), commonly known as a SIM card. The SIM is a detachable smartcard containing the user's subscription information and phonebook. This allows the user to retain his information after switching handsets. Alternatively, the user can also change operators while retaining the handset simply by changing the SIM. Some operators will block this by allowing the phone to use only a single SIM, or only a SIM issued by them; this practice is known as SIM locking, and is illegal in some countries.

there are smart fones/pda phones out there have the dual sim feature and both sims are on simultaneously, so yu can receive a call from either sim at the same time, its pretty uber ill find some links.

So, the Sim doh have enough space to hold the two numbers?
